The aza Wittig reaction of iminophosphorane 3 with isocyanates leads to conjugated carbodiimides 4 , which undergo electrocyclic ring closure to give ethyl 2‐pyridinecarboxylates 5 . Iminophosphorane 9 reacts with nitromethane and acetone in a 1:1 molar ratio to form 10 and 11 , respectively. Reaction of 9 with nitromethane in 1:3 molar ratio yields the iminophosphorane 12 . The structure of 12 has been established by X‐ray crystallography. Iminophosphoranes 10 and 11 react with isocyanates or carbon dioxide to give the pyrazolo[3,4‐ b ]pyridines 13 , 15 and 14 , 16 , respectively.
